A Century of Brazilian Documentary Film

Since the late nineteenth century, Brazilians have turned to documentaries to explain their country to themselves and to the world. In a magisterial history covering one hundred years of cinema, Darlene J. Sadlier identifies Brazilians’ unique contributions to a diverse genre while exploring how that genre has, in turn, contributed to the making and remaking of Brazil. A Century of Brazilian Documentary Film is a comprehensive tour of feature and short films that have charted the social and political story of modern Brazil. The Amazon appears repeatedly and vividly. Sometimes—as in a prize-winning 1922 feature—the rainforest is a galvanizing site of national pride; at other times, the ...

Charting a New Course

For decades F. H. Cardoso has been among the most influential of Latin American scholars, his writings on globalization, dependency, and politics having reached a world-wide audience. This book, the third by Cardoso to appear in English, is the first to incorporate essays written during his tenure as president of Brazil. The transformation of Cardoso's economic and political approach is nowhere better documented than in this broad-ranging collection of writings that span Cardoso's early theoretical work through his pragmatic agenda for Brazil in a rapidly changing world economy. The book also traces the development of one of the world's leading intellectuals, who took theory into the arena of policy when he became head of state.

Considering how literary texts address the transformations that Brazil has undergone since its 1985 transition to democracy, this study proposes that Brazilian contemporary literature is informed by the struggle for social, civil, and cultural rights and that literary production has created spaces for historically disenfranchised communities.

La primera classe: tránsitos de la literatura brasileña en el extranjero

¿Qué piensa y hace un profesor ?ya sea brasileño o no? al verse por primera vez delante de un grupo de estudiantes «extranjeros» para hablar sobre literatura brasileña? Aparentemente simple, la pregunta que sirve de punto de partida para los ensayos reunidos en este libro abre camino a una serie de otras indagaciones: ¿Quién es el profesor? ¿Cómo planificó él su primera clase? ¿Cuáles son los retos de hablar de la producción literaria de un país que no es el de aquellos estudiantes ?y en una lengua que, en la mayor parte de las veces, les es extraña? El resultado no sólo es un excelente conjunto de experiencias y reflexiones, sino también un homenaje, un elogio a quienes transforman la producción literaria brasileña en un personaje que, cada vez más instigador, no se cansa de recorrer el mundo.

The first class: transits of brazilian literature abroad

What does a professor – Brazilian or otherwise – think and do on the first day of class, standing before a group of “foreign” students to talk about Brazilian literature? This apparently simple question that gave rise to the essays gathered in this book opens a series of other questions: Who is this professor? How did he or she go about planning that first class? What challenges do professors face when teaching the literature of a country different from that of their students, and in a language which is, in most cases, likewise unfamiliar to them? The result is not just an excellent sampling of experiences and reflections – it is also an homage, an elegy to those who have transformed Brazilian literature itself into a globetrotting, thought-provoking literary character.
